Aloe PuraSun Cream Lotion SPF 15, Soothing Aloe Vera, Medium Protection UVA & UVB, Hyrdate and Protect, Natural, 200ml

Used for the first time last week. Goes on easily, non sticky. Left my skin feeling soft. I chose this due to the natural ingredients and I am pleased with the results so have purchased another bottle/tube.

I have incredibly sensitive, porcelain-pale Caucasian skin which both freckles, burns and breaks out in heat rash very easily. It wasn’t until I was an adult and able to purchase my own suncreams that I worked out that prickly heat rash could be avoided by switching to natural SPFs. This one is fabulous. It is hardly scented. It works. You get loads. Granted it’s not cheap - and the higher SPFs are more expensive. However, I adore it. As I got older I took to using it as a daily SPF under my makeup year round. I actually credit this with making my face appear 10 years younger than my true age. Cannot recommend highly enough. Only downside is that you do get a bit of a greasy film on your face that can cause makeup to slide - especially in the heat. If I was wealthier I would inevitably buy a fancier mattifying formula probably from some French skincare brand or other. However, for those of us who would like to get through summer on just one bottle of SPF (or 2 at most) this can be easily remedied by applying a mineral foundation over the top to absorb the little bit of grease. Overall, a perennial beauty winner! Will use it forever.

Good product and very soothing on the skin.Would recommend

I don't normally review anything but this product is worth reviewing if you suffer from prickly heat to the extreme.Prickly heat in the past has ruined my holidays it's that bad that they turn into blisters and it hurts! I.'ve tried and tested all sorts of products and came across this one. When the product came it was about 3 months before I was due to go on holiday to Barbados so I tried a sunbed (3mins on a sunbed would normally bring the prickly heat out even the UK summers I suffer) so I tried the cream and 3mins later I was absolutely fine. I decided to use the sunbed once a week running up to my holiday using the sun cream to try and help my skin. I was also using an anti bacterial body wash, something I had read on the internet that could help with pores. For all you sufferers will you understand the great lengths we will go to just to enjoy the sun and be able to relax.When we arrived on our holiday in the past, after the first day I would be seeing the prickly heat emerge and I would be sat inside hiding. But this wow! I enjoyed the sun and the whole of the holiday! We was away for 10days. As I said at the top of this review I suffer to the extreme with blisters so I did come out with spots and a rash on about day 6 but for me this was tolerable. I also bought the afters un too and this helped loads with the irritability.So even though it didn't completely go, for me it wasn't anywhere near has bad and it didn't start showing until at least half way though the holiday.. The temp in Barbados was around 30-32 degreesIt is definitely worth a try and not that expensive compared to regular sun creams - I read that anything that is water based which is most sun creams and after sun creams is a total no no.. One other thing to bear in mind is it isn't water resistant so you need to be mindful when you've used the pool or the sea

I experience localised skin reactions to a lot of products, moisturisers and in particular sun creams. High street suncreams make me itchy and give me a rash but I can never seem to narrow down the culprit ingredient to avoid it. I bought this one to try and so far it's not irritated my skin and I haven't burnt. It's an opaque white cream but rubs in well, a faint aloe scent but not overpowering. Shame there is not a proper UVA/UVB rating to compare to others. I've included a picture of the ingredients in case you're also looking for something that you don't react to.

Asked my AI app to analyse ingredients for safety and it’s said - annoying as this has been marketed as natural and safe and my family have used it and won’t be continuing to use. Badger / attitude /baie botanique / babo botanicals are much better from my ingredients research. Also look at ewg (environmental working group) site to see approved products and ingredients and those flagged as unsafe.This is what it flagged as concerning / unsafe in this product:Octocrylene & Homosalate: High concern for allergies, immunotoxicity, and use restrictions. The FDA has insufficient safety data to classify them as safe and effectiveOctocrylene: Linked to endocrine disruption, aquatic toxicity, and contamination with benzophenone, a carcinogen. Absorbed into the body and detected in blood weeks after use.• Homosalate: Known hormone disruptor; considered unsafe above 0.5% concentration due to toxic breakdown byproducts and bioaccumulation.• Butyl Methoxydibenzoylmethane (Avobenzone): Associated with endocrine disruption and insufficient safety data.• Phenoxyethanol: Moderate concern for toxicity and allergic reactions in certain concentrations

Use this because we have sensitive skin, prone to spots when using other sun creams. This smooths well on the skin and is very good protection (we know because we use it when holidaying in Cape Verde every year, where the sun is VERY strong & you can burn within 15 mins)
